    This one's probably for film/tv buffs really.

    I'm putting together a "participation" presentation with a myriad of timer countdown sessions in it, for which I need 30-35 second snippets of film or tv tracks, maybe even part of a song; either countdowns, "clock", or something suspenseful building to a crescendo or something humorous.

    I've come up with the 5 below but need another 5 and I'm stumped now :sigh:

    Does anyone have any ideas?

    Edit: I should add that the videos won't be shown, I'll just be using the sound tracks :thumb:

    The first 34 seconds of this:


    This, of course:


    And 45 seconds of this:


    ....


    And the first 30 seconds of this :D


    I would add "Stingray" to the list but that has "... in the next half hour" not "the next 30 seconds" and I can't edit it or do a separate voice track to play over it :waah:

    Some footage of the new years eve countdown then followed by fireworks?



    Might be a better example out there though.

    Or the original, though this Walter Mitty version is pretty damn good.

    How about the BBC radio "pips"?

    You can hear them on this page:

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-magazine-monitor-26052087

    Edit:

    And the "20 seconds to comply" scene, Robocop. (from 1:55 although the last 5 seconds of the countdown might be better suited):



    It was also used as an intro to this song:
